Honor Power announced with an 8,000 mAh battery and sub-8 mm thickness
Honor has just unveiled the Power, an aptly named phone whose claim to fame is its 8,000 mAh silicon-carbon battery. It can charge at 66 W with the included power adapter (65 W GaN charger curr. $19.99 on Amazon), with the company claiming that going from 3%-100% takes approximately 68 minutes, and it can even top up other devices, albeit at just 5 W. Longevity should also be great, as the battery will supposedly retain over 80% of its original capacity after 1,000 charge cycles.
The handset has a 6.78-inch AMOLED display with a resolution of 2,700 × 1,224, up to 120 Hz refresh rate, 10-bit color depth, and 4,000 nits of peak brightness. It packs an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 chipset paired with up to 12 GB of RAM and 512 GB of storage.
On the back, there's a 1/1.56-inch 50-megapixel sensor with an f/1.95 aperture lens and OIS in addition to a 5-megapixel ultrawide shooter. Meanwhile, the front-facing camera has a 16-megapixel sensor as well as an f/2.45 lens and sits in a pill-shaped cutout.
Preorders for the Honor Power have already started in China, with shipments scheduled for April 18. Pricing is set at CNY 1,999 ($272) for the 8 GB + 256 GB variant, CNY 2,199 ($299) for 12 GB + 256 GB, and CNY 2,499 ($340) for 12 GB + 512 GB. There's currently no information on the phone's global availability.
